New blog

Hi everyone!

I used to be @axel-writes on here, but after some technical mishaps and support not helping, I lost access to my accounts and so, decided to make a fresh start!

My dash being empty, and me trying to find again the people I used to follow, reblog if you either:

- are 20+

- write preferably fantasy or/and contemporary

- write NA

- have queer characters

About my Book, Milo’s Story (published, you can find it on Amazon)

Synopsis: Milo Blanchard lives with the memories of a loving mother telling him bedtime stories, kissing his scratches, and leaving an empty space in their home. With the passing years, he learned to grow up without a mother, heart bleeding with envy seeing his friends and their happy normal family, without telling them his wishes to see his own mother again. Nor his fears of waking up each morning. And each year, the walls around his heart grow more. For his own protection. For his own survival. Little does he know that the monster at home isn’t the only one he should be wary of.

Genre: Contemporary, LGBT+, New Adult

POV: Third, past tense

Content warnings: Child abuse, physical and emotional abuse, self-harm, suicide attempt, rape, bullying, toxic coping mechanisms.

ULTRANGELTOBER 2023 - Day 30: Tears

I used this prompt from Ultrangeltober 2023 because it was a good excuse to repost this image of Lucifer & Beelzebub, but without all of the release day information for Holiest. I also included some pictures of how the illustration looks in my novel!

It's been what, 2-3 years since I came here? If some are still following me : hello ✨️

But some news: I've been working on a dark fantasy story (3 books for the main story + a bunch of standalone) about deities, which vibes are basically "Howl's Moving Castle meets Dark Souls 3". I plan to publish it traditionally, so yes, it's in French. Book 1 is in my beta-reader's hands, and I'm 45k into the first draft of book 2.

As for Milo's Story: it's not available online anymore because I want to get it traditionally published too, and there has been a BIG change. It's now a fantasy story ✨️ I kept the themes and tropes, but put everything in a fantasy world. I'll have a lot of work to do on it 🤣

I don't know if I'm gonna be here regularly again, but yeah. Just wanted to give some news 🫶

One of the more frustrating aspects of writeblr is how much it encourages showy writing– quotes that look great out of context, that look nice on edits with little sparkly stars. And it’s always wonderful to find quotes like that in your own work, because they do exist naturally everywhere… but your work shouldn’t be written for tumblr, and it definitely shouldn’t be written to be quotable. Remember that it’s always okay to write simple, clean prose, and there’s nothing wrong with your work looking best in its natural state.

It’s a secret recipe 🤫

FINALLY managed to get to the part of this chapter ive been wanting to get to for literal months. but have been struggling to for the last week and a half it feels like

in celebration heres a short fresh-off-the-keyboard snippet. content warnings: body horror

“Guys--” I’m cut off by a scream of metal bending under tremendous force, a froth of foam and water that bursts from the gate over the canal. Xiv curses something sharp and nonsensical, throwing her arm up to cover her face and ducking away from the heave of the tide. “SHIT--” Jett’s voice in my ear cuts off with a sizzle of water against my visor. A hand grabs my shoulder, yanking me back, away from the shore. Another hand, large and grey and slick and sharp, claws at the ground I just left. The visuals on my visor glitch, duplicating and aberrating, as a high-pitched screech pierces my ears and bounces off of the cavern walls. The sound deepens, doubles, as I scramble to my feet with Xiv’s hand hooking under my elbow. “The fuck?” she shouts, stumbling on the slick ground. I catch her this time, tugging her up, glancing back at the water that’s still falling down from the initial wave. And I come face to face with a grey-skinned skull with a thousand sewing needles for teeth. My voice cracks on my scream. The thing opens its mouth in reply, exposing hundreds and hundreds more of smaller teeth lining the walls of its insides all the way down into its throat.
